摘要：This paper studies the problem of integrated distributed network localization and formation maneuver control. We develop an integrated relative-measurement-based scheme, which only uses relative positions, distances, bearings, angles, ratio-of-distances, or their combination to achieve distributed network localization and formation maneuver control in R-d(d >= 2). By exploring the localizability and invariance of the target formation, the scale, rotation, and translation of the formation can b...

摘要：In this article, the state-flipped control technique is explored to investigate the stabilization of probabilistic Boolean networks (PBNs). Changing the values of many nodes from 0 to 1 (or from 1 to 0) is called the state-flipped control. The concepts of fixed point, reachable sets, and finite-time global stabilization of PBNs under state-flipped control are proposed. Several necessary and sufficient conditions for global stabilization are also derived based on the reachable sets of a given s...

摘要：An important objective in the design of feedback control systems is the pattern generation. The term pattern denotes the behavior of the individual plant states relative to one another in steady state, e.g., periodic with a specified frequency and phase offset. Here, we solve the optimal, linear, output feedback problem in which the controller is autonomous, achieves pattern generation, and minimizes the $L_{2}$ norm of the transient portion of the impulse response. Our result reveals the opti...

摘要：A stochastic, hybrid algorithm for global almost sure unanimous decision making in multiagent systems is introduced. Homogeneous agents communicate over an undirected connected graph to make a unanimous selection among a finite set of decision states. The agents have inertia corresponding to stable, linear, and continuous-time dynamics. The algorithm equips each agent with a logic variable and designs logic-variable reset rules to ensure eventual unanimity. These resets occur randomly in time....

摘要：This article describes an extension of the well-known model reference adaptive control (MRAC) approach. The extension relies on explicitly involving the tracking error in the feedback control law: it is shown that including this term along with its appropriate extra adaptive gain allows one to handle possibly unstable reference dynamics. Owing to its stabilizing nature, the proposed framework is referred to as model reference adaptive stabilizing control. Such an extension turns out to be part...

摘要：The performance of estimation algorithms depends on the available sensors and their precisions. While higher precisions of sensors provide better estimation accuracy, it may lead to unnecessarily expensive designs and higher operational costs due to the higher costs of high-precision sensing modalities. Also, higher precision can cause interference for other sensors in the environment, such as RADARs, resulting in degradation in the overall system's performance. This article presents a framewo...

摘要：Transition analysis is essential for analyzing and regulating logical control networks (LCNs). The algebraic state-space representation method, which relies on the semitensor product of matrices, has been shown to allow deterministic LCNs to be represented as linear-like systems. However, due to the inherent uncertainty, it is hard to obtain the algebraic expression of an stochastic LCN. A unified paradigm for the transition analysis of LCNs with stochastic and deterministic dynamics is provid...

摘要：Dynamical flow networks serve as macroscopic models for, e.g., transportation networks, queuing networks, and distribution networks. While the flow dynamics in such networks follow the conservation of mass on the links, the outflow from each link is often nonlinear due to, e.g., flow capacity constraints and simultaneous service rate constraints. Such nonlinear constraints imply a limit on the magnitude of exogenous inflow that is able to be accommodated by the network before it becomes overlo...

摘要：This article presents a new numerical method, which approximates Neumann type null controls for the heat equation and is based on the Fokas method. This is a direct method for solving problems originating from the control theory, which allows the realization of an efficient numerical algorithm that requires small computational effort for determining the null control with exponentially small error. Furthermore, the unified character of the Fokas method makes the extension of the numerical algor...

摘要：This article addresses the design of robust linear quadratic regulators for systems affected polynomially by uncertainty constrained in a semialgebraic set. The problem consists of determining a feedback controller that ensures a desired upper bound on the worst-case value of a quadratic cost. Two linear matrix inequality approaches are proposed, the first one based on the construction of a Lyapunov function that weakly depends on the uncertainty, and the second one based on the construction o...
